Info
Summary of reviewsMicrotel Inn & Suites by Wyndham offers a strategic location that appeals to travelers, particularly for its proximity to RIC Airport and the convenience of nearby eateries. This accessibility makes it a favored choice for both brief and extended stays, especially among budget-conscious visitors. The hassle-free parking and easy reachability further boost its attractiveness.

However, the breakfast service at the hotel has room for improvement. Many guests found the selection limited and the area often untidy and understocked. The breakfast hours also appeared insufficient for latecomers, leading to frequent complaints despite the occasional appreciation for the presence of hot food.

Room reviews present a mixed picture; some guests found the rooms spacious and comfortable, but there were significant concerns about cleanliness and maintenance. Reports of dirty linens, unpleasant odors and visible signs of wear and tear, such as cracked ceilings and stained showers, were common. Pests like roaches and ants were also mentioned, thus indicating a pressing need for better upkeep and housekeeping services.

Cleanliness issues extended beyond the rooms to the common areas, including hallways and the breakfast area, which were frequently noted for unpleasant smells and uncleanliness. The bathrooms were often described as poorly maintained with dirty floors and fixtures in disrepair. The overall feedback underscores a general need for enhanced cleaning standards and maintenance efforts throughout the hotel.

Staff reviews were varied; many guests appreciated the friendly and accommodating demeanor of the team, particularly noting the helpfulness of the management. However, contrasting experiences highlighted instances of rudeness and lack of assistance from some staff members, particularly at the front desk, indicating that guest service quality may be inconsistent.

Bed quality reviews were mixed as well. Some guests found the beds comfortable and clean, but others reported issues such as stained bedding, burn holes and even bugs. Comfort levels appeared to vary greatly with some guests experiencing dissatisfaction with the overall sleeping arrangements.

In summary, while Microtel Inn & Suites by Wyndham has its advantages in terms of location and budget-friendly pricing, areas such as breakfast service, room cleanliness, overall maintenance and staff service require significant improvements to enhance the guest experience and address the various concerns raised.
